Citation Issues

I am back now with another query - this time I am trying to cite a personal item that I hold for my brother.

Background: My brother passed away in 1997 in Royal Perth Hospital (Western Australia) in December 1997. When he was admitted, any personal items that he had, were taken and put in an envelope that were then described on the front on the front of the envelope. His watch was described but nothing else.

Dear Editor,

I am struggling how I should cite different examples of Family Bible records that I have. I have read 3.26 (p. 139-140) and 3.27 (p. 141).

The first one is a digital image of one page, that I received from another researcher. He received these by email from the descendant who holds the original bible.

This is what I have come up with:

I'm confused about when to put "image copy" in a citation and when to use "digital archives." I've read and reread the book's examples and it's just confusing. Some examples show "digital archives" in the first reference note and then switch to "image copy" in the source list entry. Help!

Hope you don't mind me asking a basic newbie question. I want to make sure I understand 7.6. I am looking at a register of baptisms on Ancestry where only every other page is numbered. I need to record 2 entries from this page spread - one on the left page and one on the right. I'm assuming that according to 7.6 that this is an example of a folio. Specifically, am I correct in assuming that I would cite an entry on the right side of the page as folio 31r and on the left side of the page as folio 30v?

More for fun and giggles, but when citing a talk from this years NGS conference, what's the location? I'm citing Judy's talk on the Breaker Boys and Spinner girls and technically we never were in Salt Lake :) 

So Salt Lake, virtual, online, or ...

PS I'm sure it's Salt Lake as that's what all the documents say, but it does bring up an interesting point as it was a very different conference.

I've run into two living spouses. I've been entrenched in researching the distant past I've never had to include living names in a report. Is there a standard format to indicate marriages exist with living ex-spouses? Do you report the marriage places and dates but note the spouses as LIVING? Is there a good source for handling reports that include the living?

Just need some tips on citing the source of the source for this item.

It appears that Ancestry has all the right pieces in what they suggest as a citation. I could use exactly that, put it all in quotes and call it a day.

I'm thinking through citing an item for sale on ebay. It's a check with a signature on it that shows the person's signature on a specific date, before they changed it to another spelling. Do eBay listings get cached by the Wayback Machine? To be safe do I cite the whole listing URL in the footnote? Once it's sold the "repository" will be unknown. Is that a problem? Is  it better for me to buy it and state ebay as the provenance and me as the repository? Too may questions? 

I'm trying to settle on a consistent and accurate way to cite images from online databases such as Ancestry and FamilySearch and keep running into issues. For this example, I'll use an online image of an NYC marriage record on FamilySearch.

The issue at hand:

• According to QuickLesson 25, the way you site databases with images is as such: 

I have images of notarial documents from the Netherlands. These are land records, hand written in the 19th century and 2-8 pages in length. I don't speak or read Dutch. I engaged a professional genealogist to translate them. He suggested that he abstract them first to save money and if required later provide a full translation. The question is how to cite the document and abstract.

Do I put the author of the abstract at the beginning of the citation? Or do I place the abstract information at the end of the citation using "citing". Or some other approach to this citation?
